It's pretty high-tech, really. Have you ever made a flint spearhead?

Re: pic: Team 75 cutting equipment
Now there's an idea: a Tool. All these years we at 103 have been going out into the 8020 aluminums (can't exactly call it the "woods" now, can we?) to gather pieces which were the right lengths. I bet if we had one of your tools, we could, er... um... make parts the right size!

Re: pic: Team 75 cutting equipment
For all those machinists out there who have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on five-axis CNC machines, I laugh at you! The answer has been lying beneath the soil since the beginning of time. We are able to get amazingly low tolerances on high grade 7000 series aluminum.....
Ok, in all seriousness we use a 3 axis CNC machine, manual lathe and at times a manual Bridgeport. Please excuse my friend and his....."creativity". -Andrew |
